Sh...I'm being sneaky!
Guess where I'm writing this right now? My school's computer! I'm hoping dearly I won't get caught writing this or that the teachers have no idea what a Blogger is xD I'm supposed to be doing my work right now...but it's frustratingly boring and I rather procrastinate. I think my one weakness, my Achilles heel, is my love of procrastination. I will drop everything (that is boring and meaningless to me) to do some random shit that will help me in no way whatsoever other than amuse me. Sounds fun, eh? I wish there was a cure for procrastination. I would even brave a needle for that vaccine! COME ON JAPAN, HAVE A BREAK THROUGH! That was racist. But since I'm a comedian (not), I can get away with it, thanks to shock value! Right? Don't hate me. I love Japan. And everyone know that the Japanese are some smart cookies. Ok, I'm rambling. See what happens when I procrastinate?! Unless you find this amusing, I should stop now. Well, just wanted to let everyone know that I'm a bad ass for blogging while a school. And dramatic finish! *leaves*

Studies have shown...You're stupid.
I just realized something today.
When I was doing an assignment for PE at school today, I was looking at articles and saw that a new way of performing CPR was now the new "official" way. To justify this, the article stated that "Studies have shown that if one does compressions in the first four minutes, there's an increased likelihood of the person surviving..." blah blah blah. OK, so that makes sense to me. But I realized that if someone put "Studies have shown" in front of any statement and backed it up with the name of some college or university, you could probably get anyone to believe anything. For example, "Studies have shown that babies are starting to come from storks due to the shortage of straight couples." Then just add something about the University of Maryland or something and BAM, you're golden. Of course, I bet it also depends on how gullible the person you're convincing is, plus how official you make it sound. But, I think that'd be an interesting social project. Say, take some weird fact, survey 100 random people and ask if they think it's true. Like an f-ed up version of Family Feud xD I don't know, maybe it's just my cynical views on people that made me think of this. But I still think it's worth a shot. I mean studies have shown... :P

Introductions are in order...
Hello there!
My name is Genesis and this is my first post! First, I just wanna say that I probably will not be updating this too often. I love expressing myself and ranting about random things, but I'm too lazy to write it all out and for that I have Twitter! And Facebook. But I will try! At least at first :P Second, I use smileys like it's nobody's business. I literally punctuate my sentences with smiley xD (see?!). Alright, well I think that's all I'll put in for now. You will all get to know me soon, because I really am an open book.
